Chapter 52 There Is a Way to Block the Breach

"Yes." Wei Zhigu woke up. Why should I be sad? The Ministry of Industry has questions to ask Li Yi.

I, the minister, came here today just to listen to what you said. As long as you ask, Li Yi will definitely give you a good solution.

So if you are in trouble, ask a petty official to accompany you and hope that you will be magical again.

"Block the breach?" Li Yi was no longer interested in finding poems to show off, and the real thing was coming.

"Yes, the water was strong and the river burst. After spring started this year, several small holes opened in the Yellow River. People died. It took a lot of effort to seal it up."

Zheng Guang explained the situation and glanced at Li Longji from time to time.

This incident was not reported to the Ministry of Public Security because the number of deaths was only a few hundred or so.

Li Longji immediately looked at Wei Zhigu and shook his head.

The opening of the Yellow River happened before May, and Wei Zhigu had been at the Ministry of Industry for less than a month, so it had nothing to do with him.

Li Yi lowered his head and pondered, blocking the issue...

Does it count if PLA soldiers hold hands when they jump?

Replaced by Tang Dynasty soldiers.

Obviously not. If you say it, this little official will be bitten to death.

"Dr. Li, didn't you say that every question must be answered? Please hurry up." Zhang said anxiously.

He also knows that water conservancy is difficult to control. At this critical moment, you Li Yi are so awesome. Both His Majesty and Prime Minister Yao have come to you for political consultation.

Li Chengqi glared at Zhang and said, "Don't talk."

"You..." Zhang said he was about to retaliate, but when he saw His Majesty looking over with dissatisfaction, he had to hold back.

"Alas!" Li Yi sighed: "To be honest, the Yellow River burst because the angle of the river is too large, especially the nine and eighteen bends."

"Yes." Zheng Guang was confident. At least this man knew the nine turns and eighteen turns.

"The other two reasons are the river opening period and the late river opening period."

"The river opening period is when the river opens upstream, the downstream is frozen, the ice blocks the embankment, and the upstream is overflowing with water."

"The second is the accumulation of sand in the river, which raises the water level. Later, the water encounters obstruction and overflows."

Li Yi said the reason was the Yellow River.

"Yes, yes, Dongzhu Li, that's exactly it." Zheng Guang was confident.

Li Yi continued: "To control the river, we must treat the root cause, use the river to control the river, and use water to attack the sand. As for the ice period, we can explode."

"How can we use rivers to control rivers and water to attack sand? What is explosion?" Zheng Guang became more anxious and wanted to explain clearly.

Li Longji's eyes lit up, Brother Yi clearly had a solution.

"Let's not talk about anything else. Let's talk about blocking the breach." Li Yi changed the topic back.

He added: "Blocking the breach is nothing more than throwing things. Throwing things into the breach place in the river. Throwing sacks of earth and rocks is throwing. Throwing stones is also throwing."

"But as soon as I threw it down, the current was strong and the things were washed away. We must first find a way to prevent the things from being washed away, right?"

"Yes, yes. Say it quickly." Zheng Guang wanted to open Li Yi's head and find a solution.

"There is something called a willow roller. The dimensions...just follow the textbook. It is fifteen feet long, not counting the width."

"Weave branches, grass and soil into a blanket. After rolling it up, it will be two feet in diameter. Take a big piece of wood and roll it in the middle, and tie it tightly with a rope."

"Throw it into the water, tie a rope behind it, and pull it. When it encounters blisters, it will expand and become larger. It is useful for blocking breaches."

Li Yi gave something, a willow roller.

As everyone listened, Li Chengqi shouted to the follower who was dozens of steps away from them: "Bring over the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

The people over there sprinted over and did some manipulations. Zhang said he wrote it himself.

Write a paragraph and ask again, as detailed as possible so that people will know what to do at a glance.

After finishing writing about the production and application of willow rollers, Zhang raised his head and said, "Is there anything more?"

"Yes." Li Yi said.

"Speak quickly." Wei Zhigu urged.

At this moment, he was convinced. Sure enough, if you have any questions, just ask. No wonder His Majesty always comes over, and he comes often when he has time.

This Li Yi is so amazing that he didn't tell anyone when he came.

As a result...if you ask about the issue of Jukou, there will be a Jukukou cure.

He's so strong that it's unreasonable. Why don't you take him to the Ministry of Works?

Thinking this, Wei Zhigu couldn't hold back and said directly: "Dongzhu Li, I think you can join the Ministry of Industry as an official, starting with the sixth rank, not the fifth rank, and the fifth rank can go to court."

Well, four eyes glanced at him at the same time, with murderous intent. One of them had the strongest murderous intent, His Majesty's.

Queen Wang glanced at Wei Zhigu and said, "My uncle wants to be the prime minister."

She was angry, so she stabbed Wei Zhigu, and Wei Zhigu was dismissed as prime minister.

"Yes." Li Longji made another stab.

Wei Zhigu: "..."

I am not angry. I have been prime minister after all, so I have offended Yao Chong. I have a clear conscience. I cannot help his two sons do bad things.

Zheng Guang glanced at them and said to himself, please consider my feelings. You should start with level 5 so that you can go to court.

Then His Majesty and the Queen are not happy anymore, what are you going to do? It was very hard for me too. I couldn’t even go to court.

Zhang said he didn’t want to read it, it was boring, what a prime minister, now he is not the foreign minister?

Li Yi took a few glances and felt that the emotions were quite complicated.

Said: "Another method is to build a wooden cart on a slope, load it with stones, and then use a rope to connect it. Use it at the same time as the willow roller."

As Li Yi spoke, he picked up another piece of paper, moved his pen, and drew a simple picture of soil destruction and a broken car that almost didn't take long at all.

"This cart doesn't need to be strong. It needs to be used in conjunction. A bunch of carts can be connected in a row at a time. The cart doesn't need to be made of good wooden boards. It can be braided with rattan and broken wood."

"The wheel is not easy to cut, so I... better use a trough, smear it with soybean oil, and push or pry it to move."

Zhang said reaching out and taking away the paper Li Yi drew.

"Give it to Zheng Yuanwailang, what are you going to do with it?" Li Chengqi reminded.

"Let me take a look." Zhang said giving the reason.

He glanced at him casually: "Here you are... Mr. Zheng."

"Okay, thank you." Zheng Guang received it, looked at it first, then folded it up and put it into his arms along with the writing paper.

"Master Zheng, please go back quickly." Li Chengqi said again.

"What about... using rivers to control rivers, UU reading www.uukanshu.net to use water to attack sand and bombings?" Zheng Guang still wanted it.

He knew that blocking the breach was a temporary solution, while the other was a permanent solution.

Li Yi said: "Building embankments to block water and water to attack sand, in conjunction with levee embankments and remote embankments, requires more text introduction, and there is a lot of content. They are mainly used in water diversion and flood control areas."

He didn't want to write so many words today. He was tired and couldn't calm down.

As for exploding ice, when it comes to fixed-point blasting technology, he needs to get gunpowder first, and ordinary gunpowder will not work.

Zheng Guang understood, looked at a few people with regret, and went to find a horse outside the village to ride back. He wanted to quickly copy out the things and hand them in.

After he walked a few hundred steps, Song De, the steward, caught up with him and gave him a backpack-like box for scholars.

Inside were two pounds of soy sauce, a jar of fermented bean curd, a jar of stinky tofu, and a large bag of Qixiang.

Zheng Guang was not polite, thanked him and looked for a horse on his back.

Wei Zhigu sighed, finally, he had made political achievements as Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

It's a pity that his political achievements can only be told to the people by the river, not in the court.

If he had to take credit, it could only be that he brought a member of the Ministry of Water Resources to find Li Yiwen.

Zhang said to look at Li Yi, and then expressed admiration to Li Longji: Your Majesty is really powerful. We didn't know he was so capable.

Li Longji is happy, what happened to me wandering around the palace? I have official business, not for fun. I haven't been to the opera house for five days.

If you have many solutions, why do you need me to come out personally? Who knows the pain in my heart? It's not easy for me.

As the inner drama was going on, Li Longji got involved in the drama and moved himself so much that his eyes were red.

"Third brother, are you hungry? Don't worry, we'll eat soon." Li Chengqi was afraid of something going wrong, so he hurriedly spoke out.
